Problem Statement

For every natural number t t, f(t) f(t) is the probability that if a fair coin is tossed t t times, the number of times we get heads is 2008 more than the number of tails. What is the value of t t for which f(t) f(t) attains its maximum? (if there is more than one, describe all of them)
